Altera Vita ….. Your Other Life in another Virtual World

Another virtual world with a common message  is “Your other life!”. Altera Vita is one of the hundred of virtual worlds that are on the net. Here’s a screenshot of their webpage:

There is some info about Altera Vita:

Altera Vita, meaning “Other LIfe”  is a virtual world where you can work or play. Hang out with friends in one of the virtual cafes, pubs or night clubs. Setup a business in one of the shopping areas or buy land and build your own creation. Almost anything you want to do is possible in Altera Vita.

And also some information of the platform what they use for their virtualworld:

Altera Vita uses the OpenSim platform. Those that have accounts on other grids can easily move their existing content to Altera Vita.

P.S: In my own opinion, don’t we have too much opensim grids (XP) ? …….. I am not against them, I love them all! but too much can confuse new commers. Anyway I would like to give my best wishes and best luck to Alter Vita owners!, who knows ? may be one day I would like to try it!.

New World Studio V. 2.0 is comming soon!

A new version of New World Studio is comming not only for Windows but also for Mac and Linux:

New World Studio is open source software, based on the OpenSimulator platform, making possible to set up a virtual world environment in minutes.

Wether you are an educational or 3D design professional, or simply for fun, New World Studio is made for you. It is currently set as a standalone OpenSim install, but will be able to connect to OpenSim grids in the future.

New World Studio is still under development but a public release will be made available soon.

At this moment they are working hard to bring this new version as soon as possible. I have tried before and it is very easy to install and use. I am sure this new version will be very good too. Here is another information from their blog:

First of all, I would like to thank everyone who helped test the very first uncomplete draft of New World Studio. It is reported as basically running correctly on Windows, Mac and Linux. Some bugs have been resolved and missing feature added.

At the time I’m writing these lines, there are only 2 major features left to achieve : automatic updates (in progress), and email management (to be done).

So the beta release will likely be available next week ! Probably around tuesday 15th. Everyone will be able to download it from the downloads page : http://www.newworldstudio.org/site/en/downloads

You will just need to register on this website in order to download, this will greatly help evaluate interrest and publish anonymous download statistics such as the number of unique users having downloaded, which you may be interrested in.

Thanks to all for your support and interrest.!

I hope they will finish this new version in the next weeks, I really want to try this new version and to see if it really good as their last one.
